The reason for the title is because on the radio this week, Terrell Suggs the outside linebacker for the Baltimore Ravens said that they had a "bounty" on Rashard Mendenhall and Hines Ward. Interesting, since Mendenhall got knocked out for the season with a shoulder injury in the game against the Ravens. Also to add to the evidence, Mendenhall made comments about how he would have a "breakout game" against the Ravens and Suggs basically told him "Rookies cannot talk that way." So what he got here is an NFL investigation.
I personally think nothing will come out of it because this seems to happen once a year- last year the Packers were questioned about after their corners had put a "bounty" on Adrian Peterson. Mark Scherleth of ESPN who I think is one of more intelligent people at ESPN said in his twelve years, he had never heard anything about purposely wanted to hurt a player. I somewhat agree, you always want to stop certain players but you never what to hurt the guy. You might have some sort of goal like hold him to 50 yards of rushing and use that as motivation. I am pretty sure thats what we have here.
The final note on this one is why do the Ravens think they are the hardest team in the NFL. They act like they are the baddest MFing defense you have ever since when in reality, they gave up 31 points to the Colts two weeks ago. Also another thing that pisses me off is ever since 2004, Ray Lewis always comes in late on tackles and then struts around like he made the tackle.
I dont know the Ravens were just a team I have never really enjoyed watching, maybe its because they got Trent Dilfer a Super Bowl ring, ew.
